My Map Light Solution

Simple, fairly cheap, and doesn't look bad at all!

I got a Hella adjustable lighter map light for Christmas and I finally got around to getting it out of the Rover and putting it in the FJ.

It works REALLY well...I like it a lot...





sorry for the poor quality pcs.........camera phone shots on the way home tonight.......

NM2068,

Re: My Map Light Solution

It's just a headlamp with the head strap removed. It wasn't my idea, someone else here came up with it, but it works great.
